Kenny Vaccaro fined $8k for Matt Ryan hit

WTH?? It wasnt blatant. It was a rookie mistake and happens every Sunday. I could see if he hit Ryan as he was trying to get up or something but jeez.

I am getting there too. It's total bullstein!

Going back to the 2009 NFL Draft, had a Draft Crush on Clay Matthews and was p/o (still am) that we took Jenkins; that may offer some insight into why I freaked when we took Vaccaro over my 2013 NFL Draft Crush Ogletree; well, Vaccaro's start has certainly eased anxieties there...

Now, I don't wish misfortune to Matthews, but this fine him but not him inconsistency from the League Office is TOTAL BULLSHINSKI...

Florio @ profootballtalk.com seemed to have a fair ear to what went down with bountygate; why can't he and his ilk start questioning and bringing scrutiny to this uneven application of the rules?!?

Goodell can offer a statement if one person whines about the Redskins moniker, why can't many demand he offer an explanation for his apparent uneven penalties against a small market franchise?!?

I guess it would be against some rule if we passed the hat around the Super Dome at the cardinals game to help him pay it.

I am sure that fine will get "taken" care of. Yes, it deserved a flag. No, it didn't deserve a fine.

Go-to-hell & the NFL (Nuts Frippen Lacking)

no fine? no suspension?

Warned GB to stop their bounty but levied no punishment?

Matthews was fined $15,000. Came out yesterday on twitter I think from PFT.

Hmm it took until Friday, almost a week later for the fine to become public knowledge. Vaccaro was fined early in the week, what a pile of fertilizer
